KARACHI:
If you had taken a stroll through Habib University’s exhibition hall, you would have glimpsed into Karachi from the eyes of artists who are not from the city. ‘Metropolis — Artists in residence’ was a four-week-long pilot project of HU in which four artists, who do not live in Karachi, were invited to participate. The works of these four artists were put on display at HU on September 17, defining the different aspects of the city from the artists’ eye. The exhibition on Saturday.
